There have been a few smaller regionalized meets across Texas up until this point, but Marcus Coach T brough in teams from all over the state of Texas and beyond to the DFW Metroplex area.
The meet was formally known as Marcus I Invitational until long time Marcus Coach Steve Telaneus passed away in May of 2020. The meet was renamed in his honor.
This is the first year the meet has been run with the new name but it still boasts some of the best teams in Texas, including Southlake Carroll, Flower Mound, Marcus, Proper, Hebron, and more.
